Although classmate Yu Yongjun appeared to be familiar with both of them, he was still not used to staying in the same room with the teacher for too long.

After chatting with Qiao Yu for about seven or eight minutes, he suggested that Qiao Yu go with him to the third floor to find someone to play with. After Qiao Yu found out that Yu Wei did not appear on the third floor yesterday, he declined politely.

.

Considering the potential economic benefits, he wouldn't mind observing his competitors. As for playing...

What fun is there with a few brats of the same age? Let alone the same gender.

After all, he came to Xiaozhou this time to participate in a competition, not to make friends. If he had that time, he might as well read a book in his room and recharge his batteries.

"Why don't you go down with that Yu Yongjun and get familiar with everyone?"

After the little fat man went out, Lan Jie couldn't help but ask.

As a teacher, the people who have the most contact are the students. Ninety-nine percent of the students prefer to be with their peers and resist being alone with the teacher. He was really surprised that Qiao Yu didn't accept the other party's invitation.

Qiao Yu glanced at Lan Jie strangely: "Is there anything familiar? The competition will end tomorrow, and everyone will go back to their homes the day after tomorrow. There are 1.4 billion people in China. It is unknown whether we can meet again next time. And that smelly guy

If you don’t play with that shitty guy, you won’t even have a chance to get to know your direct competitors.”

Lan Jie was startled, but when he thought about what the principal said to him that day, it made sense again. This guy is indeed an indifferent person at heart.

"So you're working so hard for little Li Baba's bonus, right? Qiao Yu, there's a question I really want to know. When will you stop putting the pursuit of money first?" Lan Jie suddenly asked.

road.

Although there is nothing wrong with wanting to make money, Lan Jie felt that he still needed to help Qiao Yu establish a correct view of money and be able to look at things like money more objectively. He did not want Qiao Yu to be too greedy for money.

Miss some opportunities in the future.

Qiao Yu gave Lan Jie a strange look, thought for a moment, and said, "Teacher Lan, when you were a child, no one advised your family to apply for subsistence allowances every day, right?" Lan Jie wanted to say something, but finally stopped.

He just shook his head subconsciously.

Qiao Yu smiled and said: "That's it, our growing up experiences are different. You may have never been short of money, just spend enough. But I am different. For my mother and I, money is the foundation of our lives.

." "I don't mean that money is not important." Lan Jie wanted to explain.

But he was directly interrupted by Qiao Yu: "I understand, Teacher Lan. But if there is no money, the kind people downstairs may give us orphans and widows two steamed buns every meal, but no one will even tolerate it.

, someone brought us two bowls of fresh abalone every time, don’t you think so?”

Qiao Yu said these words in a joking tone, which shocked Lan Jie.

It doesn’t matter that a fifteen-year-old child has a talent for mathematics. His casual words can directly point to some of the purest and most essential things in society. How is such a child educated?

He was in his thirties this year and could not think of such words. So the room fell into silence.

Lan Jie tilted his head, and Qiao Xi's face appeared in his mind involuntarily. Could it be that this woman taught him?

It is not appropriate to let the child know this when he is so young! So how should we raise children?

The good teacher with a strong sense of responsibility fell into deep thought.

Qiao Yu put on his earplugs and watched the video.

At this time, there is no use in answering questions. It is better to learn more knowledge and broaden your knowledge.

Just like that, Qiao Yu finished reading the knowledge points explained by a professor, turned around and looked at the bed next to him, and found that the good old man was still there in a daze, seeming a little depressed, and felt a little strange... "Ahem, that Teacher Lan..."

"Ah?" Lan Jie came back to his senses and turned to look at Qiao Yu.

"Don't worry, in fact, I am not the kind of person who is particularly greedy for money! At least I have a bottom line, and I will definitely not do anything illegal or criminal. To be honest, I even went to the library to read the latest As for the Criminal Code, including the contents in the latest amendments, especially those involving economic crimes, I have a general understanding of them. I will never touch the minefield!"

Qiao Yu tried to make the good old man put his heart back in his stomach, but hearing this made Lan Jie even more frightened.

He always felt that when guys like Qiao Yu studied a certain code, it would often promote the progress of relevant legislation. It would be fine if they just forced the code to be revised, but the relevant workers had certain discretion in how to understand and interpret the law. Quan... then quickly said: "There is nothing wrong with making money, but don't base it on the law. You can have higher requirements for yourself and base it on morality."

"That's no problem. You also know that I scored 57 points in the ethics and rule of law exams, haha..." Qiao Yu found an opportunity to emphasize again and smiled happily. But when he saw the serious face of the good old man Expression, Qiao Yu finally stopped laughing and became serious.

"Okay, I know sometimes some of my actions are excessive, but I can't help it, Teacher Lan. In fact, I'm not greedy for money, but people always need a sense of security, right? My mother's attention is easily distracted, and she can hardly work to make money. , we two can’t really live on subsistence allowances, right?

So if I want to say when I will no longer prioritize making money, it will probably be when our savings can provide me and my mother with enough security." Qiao Yu answered seriously. Yes. Answering this question represents his recognition of Lang Jie.

If he were asked this question by another person, Qiao Yu would probably ignore it. If pressed, the most he would say is, it's none of your business.

The main reason is that Qiao Yu feels that pure good people in this world are so precious. Anyway, he has come into contact with so many people since he was a child, and there are not many such pure good people. Most of the others are good people, and the most praiseworthy contribution is nothing more than generosity. The generosity of others.

But Lang Jie was different. He was really willing to give his share, and he did it very sincerely. He didn't seek fame or profit, and he wouldn't talk about it everywhere.

He even had to take care of two stupid students who only ate steamed buns for dinner. He even gave away two hundred yuan without knowing that Lu Jia and Ma Yufei hadn't paid back yet. Qiao Yu felt that Teacher Yilan's temperament was... I probably don’t even remember this. Just when I was thinking about reminding the good old man and helping him recover some losses, Lan Jie suddenly said: "Stop looking at those things, why don’t we chat."

Such a formal request made Qiao Yu feel a little uncomfortable. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "What are you talking about?"

"Just talk about your happiest things, your family, and some of your thoughts. If you want, you can also talk about your father." Lang Jie said calmly and presumptuously. To put it bluntly, now Lang Jie feels that everything is wrong It's all because of this man.

With a complete family, Qiao Yu would definitely not be like this. It would make it impossible for him to criticize a child who has no father and has to support the family. Looking back, thinking about it, the overall lack of father's love and insecurity seem to be normal. "My biological father..."

Qiao Yu thought for a while and then said casually: "He went abroad before I was born. I haven't contacted him for so many years. I don't know if he is dead or not. I don't know where to start talking. But I heard from my mother that that guy's grades back then were It’s pretty good too. I said I scored 117 on the TOEFL and even applied for an international student scholarship from the school opposite.”

Lan Jie was stunned. As expected, nothing is as good as genes.

Qiao Yu is fifteen years old this year, which means that his biological father went abroad around 2009. Although English was already popular at that time, most of the good foreign teachers were concentrated in big cities like Yanbei and Linhai.

The TOEFL score is composed of 30 points each for reading, listening, speaking and writing. Being able to test 117 means that Qiao Yu's father's English ability is close to the level of a native speaker. If you put aside some cultural details and differences in understanding, it is no exaggeration to say , even higher than the English proficiency of many undergraduate students in their native country.

At least in terms of reading literature and academic communication, it must be far beyond that of many local college students in English-speaking countries.

Lang Jie knows this because he actually took the TOEFL test and scored only 87.

It’s not that he wants to go abroad, but that when he took the postgraduate entrance examination at this school, it would be more advantageous if he had TOEFL or IELTS academic scores. This was directly written into the graduate admissions regulations of Shuangqie University.

He even remembered that the school's requirement at that time was that the TOEFL score was no less than 75, or the IELTS academic score was no less than 6. He chose to take the TOEFL because the IELTS academic test was more difficult.

With a TOEFL score of 117, which is such an incredible score, Lang Jie simply couldn't think of who could get it. Not to mention that according to Qiao Yu, his father had just graduated from high school at that time, and he was still in a city like Star City. Second-tier cities.

Yes, although many people are now speculating on the concept of a new first-tier or quasi-first-tier city, in 2009, Star City was definitely not up to the standards of a first-tier city.

Father and son are both so incredible!

By the way, that mother is not a fuel-efficient lamp either.

People who can learn several languages ​​by themselves without being able to control their attention must not have a low IQ.

A family of three, all incredible!

"So you actually hate him in your heart, right?" Suppressing the envy in his heart, Lan Jie asked again.

"I don't feel that I hate him too much, but I really hope that he will be unlucky. It's the kind of feeling that if I can know that he is not doing well, I will be very happy. It's a pity that I don't know where he is and whether he is living well. Okay. But as an extreme egoist, he probably won't be too bad off.

Isn't this the world? People who can't afford to suffer often won't suffer. It's true that people prefer reasonable people in places that are reasonable, but that's because reasonable people are often willing to make concessions. Good people are rewarded. It can only be an expectation for the future; being shameless and being able to cash it out immediately is living in the present.

Qiao Yu also replied calmly.

This made Lang Jie a little surprised. He thought that the child would lose his temper when the subject of his father was brought up.

Obviously, he thought too much.

Shaking his head slightly, Lan Jie simply followed Qiao Yu's words and said, "Look, if you put it this way, you don't like extreme egoists in your heart, so no matter what, you shouldn't be like him, right? "

Qiao Yu immediately retorted: "No, no, no, Teacher Lan, I am fundamentally different from him. It is because I have a great mission on my shoulders. I have to support my family! The family is the smallest unit of society. If the family is in turmoil, it will Will affect social unrest

So the bad things he did seriously undermined the stability of the family and were targets that needed to be attacked by the dictatorship. And my initial purpose was to ensure the stability of the family structure. This was making a contribution to society. This is what is said in Taoist law classes. of.

In fact, I also know that my biggest shortcoming at present is that I can be blinded by the immediate benefits and forget about the greater good. So in order to overcome this shortcoming, I will definitely try to make more money first. As long as I can make my family stable, I can overcome it. This is a shortcoming.”

Lan Jie didn't want to argue with Qiao Yu at all.

It was obviously sophistry, but he could still find legal basis for it, which made even a high school mathematics teacher speechless.

This guy even has a very clear understanding of his own shortcomings and offers solutions.

A severe sense of frustration filled my heart.

So not only could he not teach Qiao Yu anything about mathematics, he couldn't even teach him anything about educating people...

It feels like it has been so many years since he graduated and started working, but he still hasn’t studied this society thoroughly as a junior high school student. It’s really crazy. How can we talk about this? It’s so weak.

After holding it in for a long time, Lan Jie said, "Forget it, you should just look at your things." Qiao Yu asked in surprise, "No more chatting?"

Lan Jie sighed inwardly and said, "Well, I'm tired, no more chatting."

Qiao Yu was silent for a moment, and after a moment he comforted him: "It's okay, Teacher Lan, don't belittle yourself in your heart. In fact, you are better suited to teach by words and deeds. I think after being with you for a long time, the villains might become good people." Hmm... Well, it’s not easy to run around with me now that you’re older, so take a rest early when you’re tired.”

Lan Jie glanced at Qiao Yu and trembled his lips. For a moment, he was really moved and wanted to cry. So this kid could see his purpose clearly, right?

This guy actually comforted him and praised him?

Lan Jie suddenly didn't worry about Qiao Yu at all. With this eloquence and ability, even if he didn't have any talent in mathematics, he would be very successful as a success tutor in the future! Let him go, at least this kid can still have morals and the rule of law. Scored 57 points on the test!

"By the way, Teacher Lan, do you snore?" Qiao Yu suddenly asked again.

"Ah? This...should not be snoring, right?" Lan Jie replied uncertainly. After living alone for a long time, he really didn't know if he would snore after falling asleep.

"Forget it, I'll go to bed early today and let's rest together. My grandpa used to snore when he slept. If he fell asleep first at home, I wouldn't be able to sleep." Qiao Yu explained. "Then, rest. Bar!"

The next day, the guest house did provide a considerate wake-up service.

However, Qiao Yu got up from bed early, jogged downstairs, went back to the room and took a shower, and then went to have breakfast with everyone. During breakfast, Qiao Yu found out that this time he was invited There were quite a lot of middle school students who came to Xiaohu University to participate in the finals, more than twenty people.

Of course, this does not mean that only more than 20 middle school students entered the finals this time. After all, coming to the headquarters to participate in the finals is only an invitation, not mandatory.

If you have other things to do or it is inconvenient to come, you can take the exam at home the same way. You just have to accept strict online proctoring.
